ወደፍት ገስግሽ፣ ወድ እንከል ኢትዮጵያ
ሳይበልክ ደም በቀር መላው አለም የሚስጥል አዳምራልን
በቃል የወደፍትና በሰላም የደኅንን አምራለሽ
እንግዲህ ድል የደረሰብሽ አምስት ኢትዮጵያ፣
ደስ ይበልሽ ሁሉን የአብን አብራሽ በጉዋዛችን
በተወላጅ የቀንን አምራሽ፣ ህልና በሕሊናችን
ትልቅ ነን በትልቅ ወይዘር ያህል የአማርኛ ቋንቋ ከሆንና
የራስ ሥራ እንዴት ይሆናል፣ የአዲስ ቋንቋና ድል ስብሰለሽ
አምስት ደስ ይሰማሽ ወሰን ሰማያችንን በምህረት
የኢትዮጵያ አምልካል የሠላም ቀንሽ
እንግዲህ ደስታን ይስጥልን ይልቅ ተስፋችሁን
በአንድነት ተወላጅ እንዲኖር እንግዲህ ደስታ ብርሃን ይሁን
